Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

"kill!"

In fact, 70% of the 120,000 officers and soldiers were former bandits. By the standards of the late Northern Song Dynasty, they were quite elite troops.

In fact... the Northern Song Dynasty had no real military envoys for a long time.

From small envoys to ambassadors, various officials Deputy Envoy, Deputy Envoy of Hengban, Chief Envoy of various divisions, Hengban, and Taiwei. These are the ranks of military attachés in the Forbidden Army system.

The place is to know the stronghold, patrol, supervise the troops and horses, control, and control.

In the army They are the corps commander, the ten generals, the head of the capital, the commander, etc.

According to records, there are more than 400 commanders in the Beijing camp.

Jiedushi has long been a virtual title, used to add titles to military officials. In the early Northern Song Dynasty, during the Taizu period That's it, let alone the Huizong period.

It can only be said that this is a strange parallel time and space, the world in the book.

The Shijie Du not only existed, but also had actual duties, and had many elite soldiers and generals under his command.

In fact, the Song Dynasty also knew how powerful Liangshan was, Only then did he take the initiative to send out Shijiedu for conquest.

According to the setting in the book, Shijiedu not only had his own soldiers and horses, but was also filled with giant bandits and bandits who had surrendered in the early years. The soldiers and horses were elite, strong and brave enough to fight.

He also conquered the Liao Dynasty. The Kingdom of Jin, the Kingdom of Jin, and the inexplicable Guifang Kingdom, so they have quite a lot of military merit. Therefore, Wang Lun of"Eight and Ninety-seven" did not completely underestimate the Bajiedu and 120,000 officers and soldiers in front of him. They are completely different from the local Xiang army. Exist.

If there are hundreds of thousands of Xiang troops recruited from the state capital, Liangshan's more than 10,000 cavalry can easily defeat the enemy!

Just like the cavalry fighting a few days ago... If the officers, soldiers and cavalry were replaced, they would have jumped directly, and the eight Jiedu's cavalry and many military attachés struggled to resist and tried to gather their troops and horses to fight back.

This is the obvious difference.

Right in front of you, more than 100,000 troops and horses kept moving forward under the beating of more than a hundred large drums.

Filling the trenches , pushed away the resisting horses, and moved away from the deer antlers. The flight of a large number of rural soldiers and civilians did not collapse these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.

The cutoff of land and water routes and food routes only aroused their original ferocity.

At least, in the last moment Fighting, they have a common understanding with the Jiedushi that only by defeating the Liangshan Army can they survive.

Many military attachés also waved their swords and shouted in the queue, commanding their subordinates to roar and curse.

The whole In the military formation, more than 100,000 people yelled and cursed in different accents. It was really a spectacle.

But the Liangshan Army on the opposite side had been silent.

There were obvious lights of weapons and armor flashing in the camp that was nearly ten miles wide.

It was almost. You can't see the edge at a glance.

On both sides of the camp, there are equally dense cavalry teams gathering.

The fleeing common people and rural soldiers have not completely run away, and it looks dark.

But the Liangshan infantry of the camp in front, the soldiers on both sides. The cavalry were motionless, and there was no movement or movement at all.

This was a silent army.

Solid, steady, cold, and silent.

It gave people a mountain-like feeling.

The closer they got, the more panicked the officers and soldiers became.

In fact , Their progress has been quite smooth.

According to the original defense deployment of the Liangshan Army, they would have placed a large number of archers and long-range weapons in the first trench, plus trenches and various fortifications, to consume the enemy's energy layer by layer, and continue to Bleeding the opponent.

In order to facilitate the escape of the people, a large number of fortifications were demolished in advance to widen the escape channels.

At the same time, the Guxuan defense fortifications that were too far away were simply abandoned.

This also made the advancement of the officers and soldiers on the opposite side quite smooth.

From several miles away Push to Rish.

Then move on.

Half a mile.

Three hundred steps.

Two hundred steps.

One hundred and fifty steps.

By this time they were filling in the last ditch.

At this time, in the Chinese army camp where Wang Lun was located, the largest commander's flag tilted forward and turned in a circle.

"collapse!"

"collapse! collapse! collapse!"

The sound of countless giant crossbows firing was heard one after another!

At least more than three hundred single-bow crossbows were fired at the same time!

At the same time, there were more slight crashing sounds.

It was a bit like the sound of playing cotton in later generations.

It's just louder and denser.

This is more than ten thousand divine arm archers firing crossbows.

The dense arrows and the giant spear-like arrows are tilted above the array of officers and soldiers. The trenches are still being filled on the opposite side, and the crossbows in the rear array The soldiers also began to fight back.

But they were separated by infantrymen carrying earth bags. The distance was extremely far, and the number of crossbows that could be pushed forward was far less than that on the Liangshan side. The arrows were flying at each other, but it was obviously the Liangshan side that occupied Taking the advantage.

The officers and soldiers kept screaming and fell down, and some people were even hit by five or six arrows at the same time. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) The

Divine Arm Bow was a weapon in the army of the Song Dynasty. It can be said that the Song Dynasty was able to The most important weapon to avoid being destroyed.

For Liao and Xixia, the Divine Arm Bow stabilized the position.

The bed crossbow plus the Divine Arm Bow was at least very useful for the defensive side.

At a distance of 150 steps, the Divine Arm Bow The killing damage is already quite sharp. Even if the body is lightly armored, the arrow can penetrate the armor and cause minor injuries. If it hits the door, neck, or chest, it can be fatal or seriously injured.

Officers and soldiers fell down layer by layer. They fell down, and their bodies were even full of arrows. Some of them died directly, and others were crawling on the ground, trying to escape from the battlefield.

But the arrows were too dense, and a few more fell on the crawling people. After the arrow, he lay still.

People fell to the ground quickly, and their blood was obviously flowing on the ground, forming small lakes of blood.

In such a rain of arrows , Under the attack, the casualties of the officers and soldiers were also extremely heavy, but fortunately the last trench was finally filled, and more archers rushed forward, and began to advance slowly while intensifying the intensity of the exchange of fire with the Liangshan Army.

Ten knots of troops and horses Like the Song Army, they attach great importance to bows and crossbows.

There is nothing that can be done about this.

The Song Army is seriously short of horses and lacks the heritage of using large-scale cavalry.

The infantry is all indiscriminately, and the emperor randomly sends out formation diagrams to set up chaotic formations. , the cavalry is even more blind, and it can be said that there is no inheritance at all.

By the time of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, after Li Keyong's Shatuo cavalry, the Chinese regime had no decent cavalry.

The three towns in Hebei were still successful at that time. Organized cavalry, but the three towns in Hebei also quickly disappeared. After the Later Jin Dynasty in Shijingtang ceded the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture, it completely lost control of the border and lost its normal source of war horses. The cavalry warfare quickly died out. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, various The Hebei cavalry, Wei Boya soldiers, Xuzhou infantry, and Huaiyang soldiers in the vassal town, in the end only the infantry group that could control Kaifeng was left........[]

It can be said that at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, only infantry groups were left, and as time went by, the cavalry became scarcer and the tactics became more rigid and backward.

Instead, a large number of crossbowmen appeared in the army.

Light armor, a short sword, a light crossbow such as the Divine Arm Bow, a strong bow, and a more powerful crossbow.

It is the kind of powerful crossbow that requires the use of both hands and feet to pull it apart. The Song army has more than a hundred people in one capital, and at most it is equipped with about 70 archers and crossbowmen.

Every time there is a battle, thousands of arrows are fired, and the arrows fall like rain.

The wind, wind, strong wind in a certain movie is fiction. The power of the Qin Nu is not that great. After all, the strength of the Qin Nu's components is limited and cannot be compared with the Song Nu.

By the Southern Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties, crossbows did not improve as time went by, but instead regressed.

Because the prototype of firearms appeared at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, they were mass-produced and recorded in history books. It was the opening year of the Southern Song Dynasty.

The Southern Song Dynasty began to mass-produce a kind of bamboo gun, which can be said to be the ancestor of all firearms. It can fire projectiles, but the material is poor.The density is poor and the launch distance is quite limited.

But war is the best technological propeller. As time goes by, iron and copper muskets appear, and their effects are getting better and better.

And there are other derivative products.

For example, mines made of iron and containing a large amount of gunpowder.

There is also a fire oil tank, which is used to spray fire oil to burn enemies.

It is estimated that there is no large-scale application. After all, if the pressure is not high enough, if you cannot burn the enemy, you may burn yourself.

By the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, not even a hundred years apart, early artillery was used on a large scale.

The three major battalions in the early Ming Dynasty were the Three Thousand Battalion, the Fifth Military Battalion, and the Shenji Battalion. The Shenji Battalion was a pure firearms unit, with cannons and a large number of strange firearms, as well as iron or copper cannons with a range of Although the power was not as powerful as it would be hundreds of years later, it could already make crossbows obsolete at that time.

In the early Ming Dynasty, there were still a certain number of archers. After 0.9 reached the middle period, not to mention crossbows, even archers were extremely rare.

But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, they encountered the Jurchens who were famous for their strong bow shooting skills, and the firearms of the Ming Dynasty did not develop to the quality of Europe... The tragedy happened again.

The ancestors who played with crossbows were killed by a group of savages using bows and arrows.

At this moment, the officers and soldiers and the Liangshan Army also demonstrated high-level archery and warfare skills.

A light crossbow like the God's Arm Bow, paired with a crossbow, a bed crossbow, and a large number of ordinary bows and arrows, can be said to be the pinnacle of bow and arrow tactics in terms of rate of fire, coverage, depth of strike, and lethality.

In Europe at the same time, crossbows were banned items. The so-called English longbowmen were famous for their bows and arrows. They were indeed quite powerful individually, but in terms of bow and arrow tactics, they were not at all the same level as the Song Dynasty army at the same time. class.

Arrows fell like rain, and blood flowed like rivers.

Both sides kept shooting, one side defended and the other advanced.

The number of officers and soldiers was large, and the number of archers was also large. When they were pushed to within a hundred steps, more archers appeared after entering the shooting range.

After all, it was an army with archers as its largest structure. More dense arrows appeared in the air and landed in the Liangshan Army's camp!.
